MAC Filtering
MAC address filtering allows the switch to drop unwanted traffic. Traffic is filtered based on the
destination addresses. Maximum of 1024 static MAC filtering entries can be added. Using the
following command, user can add /delete filter MAC address
L2SW> config mac filter add <macaddr>
L2SW> config mac filter add 00:00:10:00:10
To remove the MAC filtering entry use following command:
L2SW> config mac filter delete <macaddr>
L2SW> config mac filter add 00:00:10:00:10
To display the MAC filter table, use following command:
L2SW> show mac filter

VLAN
A VLAN is an arbitrary grouping of nodes on the network. This grouping promotes efficient use of
network resources and facilitates productive entry of repetitive network transactions. Conceptually,
a VLAN allows the network administrator to structure, separate, or partition the network. For
example, these structures in existing LANs are subnets in IP networks or broadcast domains in
bridged networks. When multiple LAN segments are bridged together, the bridged segments still
"see" all broadcast and multicast traffic on each LAN that is physically connected to the bridges and
shared media hubs. The number of stations or LAN segments that can be bridged without creating
excessive broadcast traffic on the LAN segments is limited. To avoid excessive broadcast traffic,
networks must be divided into subnets and typically subnets are constrained by the physical LAN
structure. VLANs are used to overcome some of these constraints involved in configuring the
network.
The FS-24 supports the following three types of VLANs:
•
Port base VLAN
•
Tag based VLAN
•
Protocol based VLAN
The following commands can be used to display the configuration of VLAN type, add or delete a
port attached to a VLAN.
